- The resistance zone appears around the 61.8% Fibo level of 1.0883 and the psychological level of 1.0900.
- The major level of 1.0850 could act as a key support, followed by the nine-day EMA at 1.0833.
EUR/USD put efforts to continue its winning streak for the sixth successive session on Tuesday. The pair hovers around 1.0860 during the Asian session. In the daily-frame chart, the pair shows that it is taking support on the nine-day Exponential Moving Average (EMA), which suggests that the pair could move upward to retest the strong resistance at the previous week’s high at 1.0876.
Furthermore, the EUR/USD pair could explore the 61.8% Fibonacci retracement level of 1.0883, followed by the psychological level of 1.0900.
Additionally, technical analysis suggests a bullish sentiment for the EUR/USD pair. The 14-day Relative Strength Index (RSI) is positioned above the 50 mark, indicating strength in buying momentum.
The lagging indicator, Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD), shows a divergence above the signal line, which indicates gaining strength for the pair. However, it is still positioned below the centreline. So, the traders are likely to await MACD to offer a clear trend direction.
On the downside, the EUR/USD pair could find immediate support at the major level of 1.0850, followed by the nine-day EMA at 1.0833. A break below this level could lead the pair to navigate the region around the psychological level of 1.0800 following the previous week’s low at 1.0724.
